Sketch over colour splashes workshop

Description: Madam Tia Boon Sim, lecturer from TP's School of Design conducted a sketching workshop on 16 February 2012. Participants learned to develop their sketches from a focal point using oil pastel crayon sticks and water-soluble mediums. Splashing, mixing colours on paper, scratching/scraping, wax-resist were some ways that participants could use to create interesting marks. They were also encouraged to experiment with bamboo pens, different inks and any other water-soluble mediums, strings, crayons during the sketching process. The workshop aimed to help participants appreciate the unexpected outcomes in art and learn to have fun with the process of exploring various expressions through sketching and colouring techniques.
